White Eyelet Blouse + Orange Slides.

Orange slides punch up a basic summer outfit.

White for summer is a no-brainer. So how to keep it feeling fresh? I keep switching up fabrics; earlier this week it was lace and today it’s eyelet. I also add quick punches of color– like this pair of cool orange slides or a bright tassel earring, for example– to provide some fun contrast against the white.

Speaking of contrast, I really like the way a classically feminine fabric like eyelet works with something a bit rougher– like these denim cutoffs. I scored these at American Eagle and love ’em because they are high-waisted (bless!) and have a ton of stretch. With the heat being as oppressive as it’s been lately in KC, stretchy denim is preferred over heavier retro non-stretch.

Shop the look:

I can guarantee you’ll be seeing these orange slides again. They add some polish (and length!) to cutoffs, but they will also be perfect with skinny jeans, skirts, dresses, and cigarette trousers– aka everything in your closet. And they’re under $35! If heeled mules aren’t your thing, I love these flat versions (and I have them in that pretty deep green).

I’ve got a busy weekend ahead: kicking things off by recording with the Can City podcast fellas, a few blogger events, and then celebrating my parents’ wedding anniversary. What do you have planned?

  1. What a fabulous outfit dear! I have to say, I think the accessories are what really make it stand out and different than just a classic summer outfit. I have been wanting a pair of earrings like the ones you’re wearing ever since I started getting into bigger and more statement earrings. I like how you matched your slides to the earrings too to add a pop of colour. And the sunglasses – they are fabulous and the shape is so flattering on you. I really need to get a pair like them!

  2. I love eyelet for the summer, especially white eyelet. That blouse is too cute, and you can do SO much with it!! Also, those sunglasses are amazing. I feel like I would look stupid in them, but they look so good on you!
